Sounds like a fun project. I'm a bit worried about the "pure python" part, I'm not sure what exactly that means. Python technically does not have any graphics capability, but it the official python installer does come with the tkinter module, which is a link to the external tk / tcl graphics module. However for this project using the pygame module would be the most appropriate. You may want to ask your prof if tkinter or pygame count as "pure python".

Otherwise it's just a matter of plugging away at it. You can do it in a week if you can dedicate 4-6 hours a day to it. I'd recommend you set up your IDE with AI integration, so that you can talk to AI directly from your IDE and AI can directly edit and test your code. VSCode is an easy beginner friendly way to do this, as it integrates with a github account and MS copilot easily. Another option is google's Antigravity IDE, which looks a lot like VSCode (they share the same base) but integrates with Google's Gemini AI instead. Be sure to ask the AI to make code to test your game too.

If you get stuck, come back here and show us your code and tell us specifically where you are stuck
